The early days of AI and chatbots in marketing and sales being a new way for businesses to share their stories, their message, and break through the noise in the marketplace.
The launch of his new upcoming podcast called AI Marketing, which will solely focus on bringing AI into a company’s sales and marketing processes through his experience and interviews with others on the topic.
A discussion on how to build, produce and run a podcast – sharing stories on the how-to behind the scenes.
His beginnings in technology writing and how his college experience inspired him to practice his craft and start a blog in the late 90’s, leading him to writing weekly for Forbes.com and to write his excellent book, Socialized!: How the Most Successful Businesses Harness the Power of Social. Published in 2012, it remains relevant as a blueprint for corporations to successfully transform into social business enterprises, shifting the focus from computers and tools to developing skills and attitudes around social technologies.
